Earth Day is coming up on April 22, this Thursday!  To help celebrate my daughter’s preschool class is going to Descanso Bay Regional Park.  Once there they will be lead by Natalie Godin in a nature walk and beach/foreshore exploration.  Descanso Bay Park is also home to Gabriola’s fantastic campground which we use in the summer when we only have a short time to get away.  The beach is sandstone and small pebble and there is both a lovely meadow and much forested area so it will be perfect for a guided walk for the preschoolers.  The kids are very excited about both the field trip and Earth Day!  My oldest says it is a time when we are reminded to take care of the Earth by turn off the water and lights when not using, make less garbage and eat good food:)  Kids are so smart!
